The tittle says it. This is for Admins to check. If you don't support this idea you have nothing to do here. Read this suggestion and move along.

I think that this is a matter of life and death and that this is right now one of the most important things that needs to be done on NB. Obviously new people don't pay attention to FAQ and Search functions this forum has.
That's why so much new threads are created, which actually already exist.
People of NB need to get the habit to use those buttons and not just ignore them.

So my idea was to make them more visible and eye-catchy by turning them to red or at least to glow red. This shouldn't be a problem since you are able to make names in colors and glows.

Please, please, make those two buttons more visible so that people actually spend some time using those. It will help us all.

Here is the preview of how it would look like:

A truly, a magnificent suggestion. And perhaps add to this, than when you enter the Q&A section, there is a note, that clearly states...
"Before creating a thread to state your question or suggestion, search through the forum for an perhaps already made thread" or something like that.
Red color may scare some people :|

On some boards I saw that there is already a message waiting for you when you go to "Create a new thread". I'm sure that can be done too.

It's like you go to create a new thread, click the button and in the "text editor" there is already an automatically generated message that says "Before you....blabla...make sure you read all rules."

Also regarding my first suggestion. It still doesn't mean that people will actually always use it and that everyone will use it, but even a 5% higher rate of people using them, will help the site.

Yes, that's true but clearly it hasn't done any good =/
Let's hope something will be done, either way, your suggestion is in it's place.

the madara threads got to youxd
Not only those. I don't care actually. I have closed most parts of the forum in my preview so I don't see those useless threads. I left only stuff I want to see.
Anyway, it's because all those "what is kumi, what are social groups" and threads like those. And also because all threads posted in the Questions & Suggestions which didn't have anything to do there.

Thanks for your support hun. <3

My lover is so smart... :lili:

Yes this would decrease a bit of the unnecessary threads created all around but it won't kill them completely.

Nice idea!^^

IMO. Yellow would stand out more on the Black backround. But i like the idea.
It's not about making it look nicer. It's about making people curious and click on it.

is what wiki says about red color.

"Red catches people's attention, and can be used either in a negative way to indicate danger and emergency, or in a positive way in advertising to gain more viewers, or in nature, as a ripe fruit announces its readiness with its red color. Several studies have indicated that red carries the strongest reaction of all the colors, with the level of reaction decreasing gradually with orange, yellow, and white, respectively. Because of this, red is often used to catch people's attention in a variety of situations."

I wasn't speaking about it looking nice. Red on black isn't good, as it makes it harder to see.

A colour that would make it easy to see would be a light blue or yellow colour that will intrigue the mind more then a red.

The backround of the header is black. That must be kept in mind also.

Ok, give me a few minutes and I'll make those versions in Photoshop so we can see and decide which one is better.

EDIT: Here you go.

Blue and pink are very hard to read... O__O I'd vote Red or Orange!

You must be kidding. I stated the most obvious reason why it has to be red. And those colors hurt my eyes. Red is fine. If it ain't going to be red then it can stay white, I don't care.

Exactly. U_U
